It's amazing to me, but my Rosie is actually getting closer to being driveable again!!! Rear duals went on a week ago. Rebuilt engine in, almost completely assembled, new wiring harness half-way in. D-day for initial start-up is next Thursday.

Here are photos:

Let's hear it for progress!!! yahoo

I can imagine how excited you are! I remember when we got our truck, I wanted to hear it run. My son insisted we fix the brakes first. He knew he could make it run, just wanted to know he could make it stop! thumbs_up

It is a fun hobby!

Thank Dennis!

I see your truck, like mine, is without its original mirror on the driver's door. I wish someone made those. I've got half a mind to borrow one from someone and figure out how to fabricate 'em myself!

Love your truck! Do you ever pump it?

Not since I first got it, without a tank it is harder to pump from draft.
